Product Description
Synopsis
The mid-20s to the mid-30s can be a time of difficult transition: the security blanket of college and parents is gone and it's suddenly time to make far-reaching decisions about career, investments, even adult identity. As well as heartfelt stories on issues from career to parents to boyfriends to babies, Hassler provides practical exercises to enable the woman of today to chart a new direction for her own life.

I actually picked this book up in an airport in the US on my way home from a holiday which was meant to make me decide if I was doing what I wanted with my life...believe me, reading this book on the 9 hour flight home, I realised I could have saved myself over a grand and just invested in this instead.
It doesn't spout what you should and shouldn't expect from your life, it simply asks you to figure out through exercises just that all for your self. Half way through the book I quit my job, moved into a flat with my new boyfriend and stood up to my parents still treating me like a child. Believe me, this should be mandatory for every woman who turns 20 - and read and kept like the bible. Christine Hassler also has a website which you can look up and continue if you need more help or want to chat to others (mainly from US) but no different from you - just a little confused as to what to do first!
Seriously, if your only gonoing to pick one 'life-coach' book up and you cannot put your finger on what is wrong in the first place, then make this your first stop. You'll thank me later...

I quite liked this book and could really relate to quite a lot of it. I refer back to it occassionally, if i need some confidence in making some decisions, and to feel like there is someone who undertsands my situation. The thing i hate about these kind of books though is all of the tasks the book asks you to do, like writing down things you like and dislike and your feelings and emotions. (for example, if you've not had a lot of life experience, led a sheltered childhood, not had lots of relationships, not had different jobs etc how can you possibly answer those questions properly - its like trying to get the chicken before the egg) I suppose when i get around to doing those tasks, it may help me answer/address some of my quarter something questions and the direction i want my life to take.
It would have been nice if this was a 20-30 something book and had some 30 something examples.
Also, possibly it would be a good book to get our parents and male siblings to read, so that they understand the modern young woman and quandries that we face!

This is one of the best books I have ever read, it is like a best friend reassuring you that you are ok and giving helpful, frank and funny advice. It is really up to date with today's issues for twenty somethings. It is aimed at women but is really applicable to men also. I think every twenty something should have a copy.
